Apple today updated its TestFlight app for iOS to version 2.7.0, and according to the release notes, the update adds stability improvements and bug fixes. There's one other hidden addition that went unmentioned -- a new icon.

Old icon on left, new icon on right

Apple has once again refined the TestFlight app icon to introduce a new design. The icon continues to feature a propeller, but the new look adds a 3D effect and does away with the simplicity of the prior icon.

TestFlight is Apple's app that developers are able to use to provide beta versions of apps to media, testers, and others to get their apps ready for release.

skeuomorphism is back
It's not really skeuomorphism. Its more Neumorphism, basically adding some depth to flat design.

They are app icon shapes, in case that wasn’t clear. Recently someone from Apple showed that the App Store icon is also a face on viewing of a 3D scene of app icon shapes.

Yes Sir! You got it.
Well, only because a propeller and a windmill rely on the same physics and thus look alike. It’s called “TestFLIGHT,“ not ”testMILL.”
